steinecker Containers and tanks
Planning and manufacturing from a single source
No production without containers and tanks
Containers and tanks play a central role in every production process. No matter which processes and applications are involved: containers and tanks are always on your planning and procurement list. Highest quality and precise production technologies is what you can always expect from Krones: You can get precision performance also when it comes to containers and tanks. Krones supplies storage and production tanks that are individually designed for your processes. All specifications in our container programme are designed for the tasks in a variety of sectors: Breweries Beverage production Dairy industry Wine production Food production Chemical and petrochemical industry ■■ Organic fuel production ■■ ■■ ■■ ■■ ■■ ■■

Product range
The application determines the conceptual design of the containers. So it is obvious that, first of all, we need an explicit specification of the application for which the container is intended.

However, Krones does not only manufacture containers. Our engineers with their sound technological understanding of processes take care that the containers will be perfectly integrated into your production process, and they design the tanks to optimally suit the conditions of your systems.

Figures, data, facts
Tank and container features No container is like the other. A vital criterion for container design are the process steps for which the tank is to be applied during the production process. Pressure in the tank, vacuum situation, heating and cooling requirements of the stored product, viscosity and solids content, the particle size for design of the agitator or mixer, and, of course, also the volume, are data we need for designing the tank. Moreover, the connection of the tanks to the peripheral pipe system equipment and the installation of monitoring and measuring devices are also very important. The cover and base construction and the integration of the required connecting pieces and manhole installations are completely tailored to your process sequence.

Production and assembly
Our production that is harmonised in detail takes place in a manufacturing hall specially designed for tank construction in the Freising plant, where automated manufacturing methods for cover and wall production are used. Step by step, the unmachined and semi-finished parts pass the individual workstations where qualified welders perform their particular machining step. The complete production in the plant comprises all processing steps including surface treatment by means of polishing or pickling, as well as ceramic blasting of external surfaces.

Highest level of quality
The high precision of manufacturing is based on the qualification of our staff on one hand, as well as on the powerful production automats on the other hand. The necessary cutting, drawing and welding work for large container parts, such as welding on calorifiers or cooling spirals, are programme-controlled. For the production of our tanks, we apply the globally standardised testing and welding procedures, thus meeting our demands for maximum tank machining quality.

Your benefits
steinecker Containers and tanks
■■ A new tank in no time
■■ Production and service from
■■ The quality is right
■■ Process technology experience
We do not hand over your container to others. Therefore, our manufacturing time budget allows for tight scheduling of construction and expansion measures for your production plant. Our manufacturing and surface treatment precision is visible. This is proven by certificates when the mere eye can no longer see.
■■ The welding seam prevention
programme Large machines for container parts production bring about a benefit to you: The processing steps for each container are planned in a way to minimise the number of weld seams.
a single source We are close to you. A performing customer service is our mark of distinction: After delivery and assembly of our container, the Krones Lifecycle Service provides support at any time. Thanks to our profound technological and process-related knowledge, we are very well aware of your demands placed on containers, and we can provide optimal support in selecting the appropriate materials, geometries and designs.
